adidas Consortium and Slam Jam joined forces on two exclusive new footwear styles. The collaborative duo picked two styles from two different ends of the adidas spectrum – one draws from adidas’ rich heritage, while the other from the cutting-edge of the sportswear brand’s developments.

First up is a new take on the ever-iconic 80s Superstar, a masterclass in minimalism, which comes offset by distinctive detailing. The instantly-recognizable shelltoe of the Superstar is here presented in smooth leather, while the heel panel is blacked out. This refined approach is offered with a subtle counterpoint by the introduction of asymmetrical, zig-zagging stitches on the shoe’s lateral.

The second style sees a similar aesthetic approach to a very different type of shoe. The P.O.D. S3.1 is a contemporary running-inspired style that offers an evolved take on 90s style cushioning. BOOST technology is utilized on the heel where it matters most and a ‘Point of Deflection’ bridge offers the perfect midpoint between stability and flexibility for a lifestyle shoe. The collaborative version is presented in an understated colorway of whites and creams, rendered across uppers that move between snug neoprene and soft leather. Contrast materials and colors on the heel tab, lacing and exposed tongue add the perfect amount of subtle finesse to a shoe designed to endure. The adidas Consortium x Slam Jam collaboration will be available as of November 10 at Slam Jam.

The Afew x BEAMS x Asics Tiger Gel-Lyte III “Orange Koi” is finally here! Three years after their first collaboration with Asics Tiger. The "Orange Koi“ central theme is the German-Japanese friendship, visible in the details of the shoes. The left patch on the heel shows a world map and the patch on the right shoe shows the word „Friendship“ in Japanese letters. In addition to this, the names of the partners are embossed on each side of the shoe. With an astonishing attention to detail, the sole has been designed with the „Orange Koi“ Camo. Otherwise, you can find a transparent part of the sole where you can see the Koi. With the Instore Release, we will have a Special Packaging, which includes a limited Wooden Special Box, an "Orange Koi Bandana", Inscent Sticks and a History Booklet. Additional laces complete the set. Releasing 10. November at Afew.

Find out about the whole story of the Koi. Started from the 1-of-1 handmade Asics Gel-Lyte III “Koi” to the latest collaboration with BEAMS. Do you ever wonder why we collaborate with Asics Tiger and not with another brand? Check this episode and learn everything about the story of the Koi and you will possibly get a glimpse of the “Orange Koi”.

Following the Kazoku program, 24 Kilates teams up with Mizuno honoring the exotic reptile King Cobra (Ophiophagus hannah), paying respect to one of the most tough and fascinating animals on earth, well known on their second motherland, Thailand.

Founded in 2005, Chicago's Saint Alfred and adidas Consortium partner for their second collaborative shoe, the Temper Run / STA. The Temper Run is given a fall season color palette and 1990's outdoors-wear construction with suedes, ballistic nylons, reflective panels, and gum outsole.

Saint Alfred worked alongside Chicago artist Stephen Eichhorn who created new visual works to help capture the spirit of the adidas Consortium Temper Run / STA shoe. The adidas Consortium Temper Run x Saint Alfred releases October 20 at Saint Alfred.

Following up on the release of the recent “Ivory” colorway, another adidas Originals YUNG-1 enters the scene, this time in a size? exclusive “Craft Ochre” colorway. A reconfigured version of the original Falcon Dorf training shoe from 1998, the updated Yung-1 is strikingly accurate in appearance as far as retro releases go, albeit with a few branding tweaks that take the shoe away from the performance category and bring it into the Originals family. The first time around the Falcon Dorf sat in amongst an assortment of memorable shoes from the same era, including the Galaxy in all it’s different iterations, and runners from the iconic Equipment range.

Returning in a slightly different guise for 2018, the Falcon Dorf’s influence is noticeable in the uppers, with the only obvious differences being the restructured tongue and removal of performance branding. Torsion technology sits inside the midsole, as it has done since the 90s, to provide support underfoot and improve cushioning. This latest size? exclusive colorway offers a vibrant version of the silhouette. Rich shades of orange coat the shoe’s premium nubuck, suede and mesh uppers, and these striking shades continue to envelope the entirety of the midsole and gum outsole. The size? Exclusive adidas Originals YUNG-1 “Craft Ochre” drops October 20 exclusively at size?

After helping Diadora commemorate its 70th anniversary with a special collaboration dedicated to Highsnobiety’s hometown of Berlin, part two of this joint celebration pays homage to our second home in New York. Releasing exclusively at Highsnobiety.com on October 24, the New York-inspired N9000 design comes by way of frequent Highsnob collaborator Hikmet Sugoer who looked beyond our office’s urban landscapes to the vast wilderness just outside of the city and happened upon the official bird of New York State—the Eastern Bluebird. Our N9000 features a distinct blue color palette with the bluebird emblazoned on the insoles and hits of peach nectar along the side panels for a truly unique ode to the Empire State.

Inspired by the phrase "Publicity. Publicity. Wohoooow!" Patta’s latest collection with Nike features multiple creative expressions including apparel, footwear and a campaign for which they collaborated with a group of 11 artists. “Traveling. Visiting each other. Getting to know each other. For us, that is where the collaboration between Nike and Patta started,” explains Patta’s Vincent Van de Waal. The phrase, "Publicity. Publicity. Wohoooow!,” stems from another sort of collaboration — the spontaneous “happenings” of 1960s avant garde artists, like Amsterdam’s Robert Jasper Grootveld. For the Patta crew, these engagements remind of a need not just for self-awareness and irony, but as Van de Waal notes, about how wearing overtly branded items becomes an act in space in and of itself. Releasing October 20 at Patta.

Stepping out from within the shadows, PUMA's Thunder returns, delivering the 'Shadow Rise' in collaboration with END. In the wake of its predecessors, the latest Thunder silhouette brings dimension and architecture with a pared-back recoloring. Embracing the new era of sportswear with a solid stance that refuses to falter, ride the wave of the dad-core movement with the END. x PUMA Thunder “Shadow Rise” at your feet.

Commanding attention with a minimalistic aesthetic, the sneaker's grand architecture combines black nubuck and leather with a stacked white sole underfoot. The perfect setting for dual-branding, the pull tab and cork footbed find light in the shadows, with earthy wooden suedes and concrete leather overlays wrapping around the heel. An extension of the IMEVA cushioned midsole, a semi-translucent gum rubber outsole takes the sneaker to new heights. Raffle is now open at END.Launches

The first ASICSTIGER x Solebox collaboration now dates back 10 years – an explicite reason to celebrate and honor the classic. That’s why Solebox teamed up with their Japanese friends from Atmos to create a new product on the Gel-Lyte III silhouette launching on October 13th. The collaboration merges the DNA of both influential partners: While Atmos gives the model its own twist through its striking signature snow-tiger-camo pattern, the grey and purple color-scheme reflects both the urban Berlin vibe and the heritage of ASICSTIGER x Solebox collaborations. Coming from the 2008 Solebox collaboration “The Sun“, parts of the upper further change their color to bright purple once hit by UV light, further used as accent color.

Some upscale details accomplish the conspicuous design. The lace-tips as well as the backside got printed with both an atmos and solebox logo while the sole is partially icy on the heels and further features embedded emblems. The Gel-Lyte III comes with a smooth leather lining inside which ensures an exclusive appearance and provides convenience while wearing. Releasing October 13 at Solebox.

This October, for the first time, HANON are proud to come together with KangaROOS and debut their HANON Coil-R1 ‘Moonshine’. Known globally for their ‘Original Shoes With Pockets’ they have reworked the KangaROOS ‘86 Coil-R1 runner in a premium execution. Handcrafted in Germany at the Kangaroos factory in Pirmasens, our interpretation of the Coil-R1 is inspired by the one-time illegal production of alcohol in the US - commonly known as Moonshine!

Originally produced at night and under the cover of darkness, Moonshine was distilled in makeshift copper pots and typically made by fermenting corn mash to produce a high-proof clear whisky. Notoriously unsafe and depending on the reliability of the distiller and apparatus used, lead poisoning and blindness were often a result of a poorly made batch. The volume of alcohol in the liquid could be tested by shaking a clear container. Large bubbles indicate high alcohol content and small bubble low alcohol content whilst a flame test could also be implemented to check for lead and other toxins!

Utilising premium materials and handcrafted German production, our Moonshine edition of the Coil-R1 features a plush suede upper with contrasting cracked overlays and a full leather lining. Moonshine references appear throughout the shoe - highlighted via the tan colour to depict the mash, contrasting teal pops representing the oxidised copper on the stills, and patterned overlays to illustrate the bubbles in the liquid. Additional attention to detail appears in the rustic zig-zag stitches the tongue patch and footbed whilst the ‘illegal batch’ is depicted in an individually numbered edition of 408 pairs. Finally, the coil-R1 is sat atop a DYNACOIL sole unit - a patented NASA tested shock absorbing material making the Coil-R1 out of this world comfortable. Releasing October 13 at HANON.

When the adidas Equipment line first launched in 1991, its goal was to be “Everything that’s essential. Nothing that’s not,” and that included a very minimal approach to color. The initial EQT line-up is best remembered for its running silhouettes and their instantly recognizable white/green color scheme — a look that went against the grain by shifting the focus strictly to performance rather than relying on the bright color applications that dominated footwear trends at the time.

But the EQT line meant much more than running, as it covered the gamut of footwear categories and athletic needs. One of the true high-points of the early EQT output was the “Adventure Equipment” line, featuring a full range of rugged outdoor footwear options that not only demonstrated the versatility of the brand’s new direction, but also introduced a wider spectrum of colors and materials. The Packer x adidas EQT ’91 celebrates the classic EQT Adventure palettes by taking color cues from archive models to create an homage to this seminal era of adidas footwear. The shoe features a combination of premium suedes and leather complemented by heavy duty mesh and technical synthetics. Limited to only 250 pairs and available exclusively at Packer on September 22.

CONSORTIUM4D is a concept shaped by light, liquid and oxygen. Combining the worlds of the natural and the technological to birth a shoe unlike any other. Featuring the world’s first high performance midsole crafted with light, liquid and oxygen. Its single component design is precisely tuned for controlled energy return, providing lasting cushioning and stability for any activity. Pioneered by carbon this breakthrough 3D printing process transforms liquids into solids.

The adidas Consortium 4D / Footpatrol shoe draws inspiration from the theory of colour harmony. Using the colour wheel as a guide during the design process, FP selected an array of tertiary and secondary shades of green that blends harmoniously in a knit construction. The three-stripe Adidas branding features on both the medial and lateral panels of the shoe, screen printed in White on the medial and Black on the opposing lateral. Embroidered thread is stitch in a block form overlapping the knitted upper and synthetic suede heel counter. The Footpatrol Gasmark logo is situated on the embroidered Consortium label loop and heel of the footbed. The shoe is completed using a Continental rubber outsole for added traction. Releasing September 21 at Footpatrol.

Livestock’s collaborative history with adidas stretches back to September of 2008, when they released the adidas Consortium x Livestock ZX 450. The relationship has continued as the years pass, coming together to design the Livestock Pureboost ZG, and the Samba in 2016. Marking ten years since that first Consortium collaboration, the upcoming adidas Consortium x Livestock Ultra Tech GTX and Terrex Skychaser are crafted to reflect their lifestyle and surrounding. More information about this release coming soon.

Introduced in 1985 of the legendary Reebok Club C 85 is the source of inspiration for the first collaboration work between Reebok Classic x OVERKILL. Referring to their team members memories of East Berlin in the 80s OVERKILL put a lot of love into details.

Starting with different inlays which are strongly influenced by the colorful pattern mix trending at that time. Inspired by the characteristic designs of wallpapers tablecloths or floor patterns all together they recreate a typical living room atmosphere. The processing of a butter-soft upper leather with its ivory shades is as on fleek with color trends of mid-80s, as the green corduroy from which the tongue is made. “Berlin 1985” in the heel area, or the embossed co-branding on the upper and the woven tongue label OVERKILL is restaging the vibe of former East Berlin. Based on the well known sector signs that lined the streets during Berlin’s division, the labels on the insoles indicate when you are leaving or entering the “Sector Overkill“.

On the tonal lace-keepers made out of soft rubber you can read the pun „Bückware“. In the former GDR Bückware stood for strictly limited and barely accessible “hot goods“ which were often traded only beneath the counter. To revive that feeling OVERKILL is hosting their first extern and global exclusive release combined with a GDR theme party at Klub der Republik, an old-established club in East Berlin. Not only the use of contemporary materials and associations from East Berlin underline the authenticity of the project. Especially the special GDR boxing is: A tawny flap box in which the silhouette is wrapped in a then classic, loose-knit shopping bag. Releasing exclusively at OVERKILL on September 23.

Sneakersnstuff are proud to announce the follow up release of the 2017 critically acclaimed Datamosh Pack with adidas Originals.
